Anandpur: A brother-sister duo was killed after portion of the wall of their house collapsed at Manoharpur village under Ghatagaon police limits in Keonjhar district late on Sunday.
The incident took place when one Rukmini Munda was sleeping inside the house with her children – Bablu Munda (2), Gita Munda (5) and Hema Munda (3). The wall suddenly collapsed and fell on them following incessant rainfall.
Bablu and Gita, who got trapped under the wall, died on the spot while Rukmini and Hema were rescued by locals.
